    The Nottingham Top gives the ordinary a twist, literally! Featuring a twisted knot in the front, the Nottingham has a relaxed fit bodice with three sleeve options—long sleeve, elbow short sleeve and butterfly sleeve. It’s a super comfortable, casual knit top that looks fabulous with pants or skirt.

    Pattern features:

    • Front, off-centered, twisted knot
    • Relaxed fit bodice
    • Scoop neck with neckband
    • Three sleeve options—long sleeve, elbow short sleeve and butterfly sleeve
    • Layers feature (print only the sizes you need)

    Suggested Fabrics

    Primary fabric: Use a light to medium weight knit fabric with at least 75% vertical and horizontal stretch. Fabric with good drape, such as one with rayon or bamboo content, is ideal. Note that the wrong side of the fabric could peek out below the knot and also in the butterfly sleeve; therefore, use fabric whose wrong side has similar color to the right side.

    Notions

    • 10” (25 cm) of 3/8” or 1/2” (1 cm or 1.25 cm)-wide straight fusible stay tape (or you may cut your own using lightweight woven fusible interfacing on the straight grain

    Choosing your Size

    • Compare your bust circumference (widest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that fits your bust best. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size.
    • Compare your waist circumference (narrowest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that fits your waist best. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size.
    • Compare your hip circumference (widest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that fits your hip best. If you are in between sizes, choose the smaller size.
    • It’s OK to use different sizes for the waist and hip. See instructions for details.
    • If you are taller or shorter than 5’6” (168 cm), you should consider lengthening or shortening the skirt. See instructions for details.
    • It is highly recommended that you check your fit by making a test garment with inexpensive fabrics that have similar weight and stretch as your final garment fabrics.
